Philip Labes Autumn
Autumn
How I missed you baby
Hiding in the oak tree
When everything was green
Autumn
Sunset's coming early
We walk back with no hurry
Crunching all the leaves
We watch it fade away
To nothing
We watch it fade away
To blue
Wake up now, the whole world is a cherry
Don't fall asleep, there's so much left to see
It's easy to forget it's temporary
Autumn, thanks for reminding me
Autumn
In your arms of wool and denim
Could you trap me the resin
And never let me leave
Autumn
Someday in our faces
Will only be the tracеs
Of who we used to be
Thеy'll watch us fade away
To nothing
They'll watch us fade away
To blue
Wake up now, the whole world is a cherry
Don't fall asleep, there's so much left to see
It's easy to forget it's temporary
Autumn, thanks for reminding me
Autumn
Now that I'm much older
I still lean against your shoulder
You listen through the tears
Autumn
I know you must be going
I guess that there's no knowing
If I'll see you next year
I watch you fade away
To nothing
You'll watch me fade away
To blue
Wake up now, the whole world is a cherry
Don't fall asleep, there's so much left to see
It's easy to forget it's temporary
Autumn, thanks for reminding me
You say "It feels good to age
And to step off of the stage
It's a sting from a honeybee"
You say "Once you leave the tree
You'll float right down here to me
In a pile of infinity"
